My life has been enriched in so many ways by this very thing -- the spirit-rituals of their culture. Even their language reflects the constant presence of the Holy. (Spasiba (thank you) = Save God.)

Pass the gravy, please. :) Sue, I think God is calling you to go to Russia with me! My life has been enriched in so many ways by this very thing — the spirit-rituals of their culture.
